Bill Clinton was an FBI informant infiltrating the cabal of shadowy pedophiles. I will literally die for Bill Clinton. See source.

Surely someone's uploaded a Rickroll video with a thumbnail that hides what it is.

Frankly I love this, because now we get to watch the conservatives squirm.

Is Bill Clinton a pedo for associating with Epstein? Or are they going to walk back all of their statements and say Clinton did nothing wrong writing a sex trafficker a birthday card?

All the Democrats I know are fine with locking him up if evidence against him surfaces, but boy howdy is it gonna do a number on the conservatives in my life.

[–] JandroDelSol@lemmy.world 10 points 10 hours ago

to them, trump can do no wrong, so anything he does gets excused. they'll happily tear down others for doing the same things that trump did. trump humpers don't operate on logic

They really aren't squirming. We have to stop letting the stupid algorithms and memes we subscribe to color our thinking about the reality of social divides.

The right broadly is happy as pigs in shit right now. They DO NOT CARE about Epstein or any of the other "scandals" broadly. They're just happy their angry, orange Jesus is making the nasty, nasty liberals and trans kids cry. They wanted all of this, they don't care about crime and law and consistency and leadership and the economy and policy. They just care about the narrative and the narrative they are hooked into right now is that the left broadly is screaming in rage and they LOVE IT.

There are some here and there who are really uncomfortable and it may be a wedge issue for them, but don't get fooled by amplified minority voices on any topic.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

The minority voices here are more important than you think. The hardcore MAGA base is not that big, and they need more mainstream conservatives to go along with it--the ones who say "I hate Trump, but Hillary/Biden/Kamala would be worse". You start cleaving away pieces of MAGA, and it will fall apart as a political movement.

The hypocrisy and inconsistency is on purpose.

They. Do. Not. Care

Which has also been objectively worse under Republicans for the last 70+ years

[–] Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world 76 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

now we get to watch the conservatives squirm.

If they weren't shameless hypocrites, yeah. You really think they'll have any issue saying Clinton is a pedo for associating with Epstein, while in the same breath saying Trump did nothing wrong for that exact same thing?

Frankly, I don't even think Hillary gives a shit about covering for Bill at this stage- The argument that anyone is trying to protect Bill is idiotic.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago

Right? The time when there might have been some kind of large amount of people wanting to cover for him was maybe...2 and half decades ago? The guy isn't in power, no one cares enough for any of that...

It's mostly the butthurt cons that were spreading black helicopter nonsense and swapping copies of the Clinton Body Count over email back in the 90s that are still obsessed with Bill (and Hillary).

The same release also includes confirmation of the Trump "wonderful secret" note that he claimed was a hoax, and is currently suing the WSJ for billions for reporting on.

Wonder if he'll withdraw the lawsuit, or whether the whole thing was just another "it's not a bribe, it's a settlement" scam.

[–] kent_eh@lemmy.ca 8 points 12 hours ago

Wonder if he'll withdraw the lawsuit

Doubt it.

He will toss out as many roadblocks for as long as possible to continue to threaten the WSJ and try and delay any further releases from them or any other media.
